is the SeaSonic X Series X650 Gold getting to be older technology?

[BTRY B 529th FA BN]

The big question is why is it not available on Newegg for purchase? Has it been recalled?

Might not be compatible with certain motherboards. My Seasonic X 650 wouldn't work right with my old Asus P5Q Premium 775 board.

EDIT: have you checked Seasonics web pg?

I really don't understand what you are trying to say here.

It's the same PSU with a few minor differences.

I know. Total capacity isn't one of them. That is what I'm saying, how is that not clear 😵

 

[BTRY B 529th FA BN]

You wrote that they have the exact same rail on both PSUs, I was adding that the only difference was that they optimized a few minor things like the heat spreader, etc. Why would you start to argue over this?

 

[lehtv]

I said same rail specs hence same output wattage. You started arguing about it not me

 

[BTRY B 529th FA BN]

I wasn't arguing anything. I was adding additional information.

 

[lehtv]

Then why did you answer this instead of answering "it doesn't have anything to do with it"?

 

[BTRY B 529th FA BN]

Because you didn't mention anything else about the PSU besides the rails being the same.

Why is this a problem to you?

 

[lehtv]

I'm not following your logic. Whatever. I don't understand how your answer above makes any sense. It doesn't, I guess.

he added info about why they changed the name. makes sense to me. not every response is a counterpoint.

Hello, iamloco724. Welcome to the Anandtech forums 🙂

I on one hand don't know enough to tell you why they deactivated it. Maybe someone here does. But currently you are limited to the posters in this thread, which is not a bad thing but my point is you could start a new topic asking why. You'd probably get more responders, or you can ask on the JohnnyGuru forums. Every once in a while an editor/writer will respond to a thread like Oklahomawolf or Johnny.

Cheers

The X-650 is on sale at NewEgg for $99, so that makes the 650 v. 660 debate very easy for me. 🙂

This thread has the differences between the 50 vs 60 models.

I never claimed it was a counterpoint. I asked what it has to do with what I said, he could've said "it doesn't actually". That it was just additional info that was not actually relevant to my post but he quoted it anyway. Instead he defended his reply as if it was a counterpoint after all, which I didn't understand at all. As I said earlier, he started arguing about it, I just asked what his point had to do with whether X-660 is 660W in name only or not
